Holy Pancake Batman! (Starring: apples)


There are many things in this life I've never done. Among those things, I'd count jumping out of a plane, actually cleaning vertical blinds, and making pancakes without the presence of Bisquick. Luckily John's there to change that. 

This could be breakfast. This could be dinner. It's how us poor people (and not the "New Poor" for those who watch Always Sunny) have always disguised using low-cost pantry ingredients as a fun activity called "Breakfast For Dinner." Tonight we made a souflee-inspired pancake with caramelized apples. 

Mix the following in a large mixing bowl. In our case the Joyce Chen wok made another appearance.

1/2 c. flour
2 tsp. sugar
2 eggs
1/2 milk
Pinch of salt

Then, sear the following ingredients in a large frying pan until the apples become caramelized:

1-2 Apples, sliced thin
Cinnamon 
2 tbsp. brown sugar
2 tbsp. Butter

Place the pancake batter over the sizzling apples and just flip it (flip it good!)

Warning: Split this with someone because it's massive!

  1. Huzzah! I'm loving your posts, Erica. And for what it's worth, this would qualify as "brinner" in our house.
